Tonight, we attended our first performance at the China National Opera House—a symphony and ballet set to The Yellow River. The music, staging, and dancing were breathtaking, and we left wanting to see it all over again.
Since our e-bike couldn’t fit four, I planned to run home—but Hamer wanted to join. We waited backstage, caught glimpses of the dancers leaving, then walked home together, snacking on frozen grapes from 7-Eleven. We held hands, laughed, and skipped until she got tired. At Chuangshan Liquor Bar, we stopped for skewers and beer to rest.
